Idk why I always wake up with either my sides or neck or smth hurting when I wake up but that didn’t happen while I stayed at a hotel. It’s not like I’m an old broken man who should be waking up expecting this.

Maybe. I just bought a shikibuton that was $500. It’s a Japanese floor mattress. It solved almost all of my pain problems. I’ve been sleeping on it for about 3 weeks now, and honestly it’s amazing. The floor doesn’t sag so everything stays aligned.
I also bought a $5000 mattress that I’ve yet to receive. Only reason I bought it was because my wife was mad I bought something for me only (she thinks it’s stupid that I’m willing to sleep on the floor at all…anyway…). It felt nice at the store…but we’ll see when it gets here. It was an Aireloom Luxury Firm.
Good to see another futon lover!
Probably just a brand issue, but every futon I’ve ever been on, which has unfortunately been a lot of them, has been incredibly uncomfortable and you can feel every bar as if there wasn’t even cushioning.
The thin futons are like that, I tested several in the store before I chose. The one I have is thick enough to not feel the bars. There is one thicker (it has more wool) that I would probably choose next time because the wool does compress over time. I don’t really see the point of the thin ones, they were definitely uncomfortable.
It’s because it hurt my soul to spend a bunch of money on a mattress. Plus, I like the aesthetics of folding up my bed when I get up, having that space available for use.
How’d you end up liking futons?
I slept on a futon at my grandparent’s place and really enjoyed the comfort. It’s also nice to be lower to the ground for some reason, and in general I love the Japanese aesthetic.
The base I bought can convert to a couch or into a sitting upright position which is nice for watching movies or reading. I unfortunately miss out on regaining floor space though.
My wife is on an Aireloom. She asked for the hardest mattress in the store (probably 100 models) and the sales guy really tried to talk her out of it because it’s THAT hard. She could sleep on bare concrete and that mattress has been a godsend to her.
You guys sleep in separate beds?
We do at the moment. I couldn’t stand sleeping in that bed because I’d wake up in pain every day. Once we get the new mattress, we’ll be back in the same bed.

I have so many reasons to sleep in another bed, but I really love them cuddles.
Can confirm… sleeping on the floor does wonders to aches and pains.
